The 2022 Triathlete holiday gift guide
What are the best Holiday gifts for triathletes this Year?
The 2022 holidays are right around the corner, and you might be in need of gift ideas for that triathlete in your life. Don’t worry, here at Mauna Endurance, we have your back. We have selected the best products and services to help your triathlete swim, bike, run and recover better. All of these have been carefully reviewed, tested, and approved by our triathlon coaches, so you can trust that these are the best pieces of equipment, no matter the skill level.
Let’s start adding to that cart!
mauna cycling kit
The recently launched, Mauna Apparel, is the new trending brand for cycling and triathlon. Anything from the Apparel line would make a great gift for triathletes and passionate cyclists. Clothes are stylish, well-designed, and built to last. There are special bundles just in for the holidays so you can take advantage and get the perfect gift for your loved one!
Mauna Accessories
If the cycling kit isn’t what you are looking for, check out the Mauna Apparel Technical Running Trucker or the Performance Socks. They are perfect for all the running, cycling or strength conditioning sessions your triathlete will likely do during the offseason. The truckers are also one of our favorite pieces we wear to hide the “just-got-off-the-treadmill-hair” during video calls.
Roka triathlon wetsuit
For years, Roka has made some of the best premium triathlon wetsuits. The Maverick Pro II is the best bang for your buck. Think: chafe-free neckline, great seals to prevent water entry, easy on/off, and durable material that’ll last for more than just a couple of seasons. The perfect present for the first out of the water athlete!
Roka Swim Gear
Roka also makes some of the best swim gear in the market. We recommend the Utility Pack: A purpose-built storage solution designed to hustle as hard as your favorite triathlete does. The 30-liter pack features a deep main compartment with multiple dividers to store papers, books, shoes, clothes, or anything else your day requires. Another great pick to help the triathlete in your life improve at swimming (something most of us need in any case) are swim paddles THESE ones.
Magic5 Goggles
The MAGIC5 Swim Goggles create a better swimming experience. By getting rid of those pesky leaks, your triathlete will be now swimming free from distractions, only focusing on swimming and the water. Swimming as it should be! They are comfortable to wear, have no leaking, and leave no marks. Custom made based on a 3D Scan - these will be your athlete’s next favorite googles. Plus, did you know they were featured on Shark Tank?
Hyperice Recovery Tools
Every triathlete needs some type of muscular massage, and percussive massagers are not only an effective option, but they’re a lot cheaper than physical therapy or routinely going to a massage therapist. The latest version of their Hypervolt is lighter, more ergonomic, and has Bluetooth connectivity. But, if the triathlete in your life has been exceptionally good this year, it’s probably time to step up your gift and get them the new Normatec 3 - The next evolution of the iconic Normatec series, these boots use dynamic air compression to advance wellness, recover faster, improve training, and maximize performance.
Nutrition Pack from Maurten and Momentous
Passionately formulated for the best results, the Momentous Bundle is your way of gifting the highest quality and innovative products on the market combined with the knowledge and insights of why and how to use them from the world's leading experts. The Momentous PR Lotion is another great gift we highly recommend!
What about gifting the new Maurten Solid Bar? Recently introduced to the market it has easily become one of our favorite snacks for pre, during and after workouts. This year, Maurten also launched the Transition Kit. It contains a selection of small reusable essentials that will make a big difference on race day — and beyond.
Wahoo Fitness Tech Gadgets
In order to be the best, your triathlete must train like the bests. The Wahoo ecosystem includes all the tech gadgets you may want to gift. Our picks are the Elemnt Rival Sport Watch, the Elemnt Bolt Bike Computer, and the Tickr Fit Heart Rate Monitor. No matter how far your athlete wants to go, Wahoo has it covered. With simplicity and the mindset that “there’s got to be a better way to get things done”, and in our case, workouts done!
Charging dock station
Are you tired of multiple cables and charging points all over the “pain cave”? Look no more. With this solution, the triathlete in your life can place all the devices he needs in one place, making sure they are always charged and ready to go! They are also price friendly – definitely recommended!
3-month Triathlon Coaching Plan Subscription
We all know the importance of having a coach to guide you or your athlete during the journey to become an Ironman. Subscribe your athlete to one of our coaching plans and give them what they need to improve the most next season!
